the bible…continued
Friends, it has been a while since I have posted on my series on the Bible. I haven’t forgotten about you. It is the Christmas season in ministry, so I probably won’t be able to continue until the clock turns on 2007.
In the meantime, I want to direct you to someone who knows way more than me and expands on what I will probably be touching on as I continue the series: Dr. Mark D. Roberts. I highly commend you to click on these links and read what he has to say about the Bible.
The truth is, Roberts sums up my views plus some. There may be no need to continue the series…ha!
Here are the links:
The Bible, the Qur’an, Bart Ehrman, and the Words of God
Are the New Testament Gospels Reliable?
Are the New Testament Gospels Reliable? Further Thoughts
Roberts is the Senior Pastor of Irvine Presbyterian Church in Irvine, California and he studied at Harvard University, receiving a B.A. in Philosophy, an M.A. in the Study of Religion, and a Ph.D. in New Testament and Christian Origins. He also teaches classes in New Testament for Fuller Theological Seminary and San Francisco Theological Seminary.
Enjoy his blog and let me know what you think!

I liked what he said about the Gospels. I have not read all of his stuff, but I really like most of it. It is one of the few christians that I have seen that have expressed an honest approach to scholarship of the NT.
Anyway, what I am most curious about is the selection process of the canonical books.
